BELGRADE, August 5 /SRNA/ – Sirens sounded today in Serbia to mark Day of Remembrance of Serbs Killed and Expelled in the Croatian military and police operation Storm. At noon, sirens sounded a “cessation of danger” signal in the whole country during 60 seconds.
On August 4, 1995, supported by NATO, and in cooperation with the Croatian Defence Council /HVO/ and the so-called Army of BiH, Croatia committed an act of aggression against northern Dalmatia, Lika, Kordun and Banija, that is, against the autonomous area of Krajina, a part of the then Republic of the Serbian Krajina.
More than 200,000 Serbs were expelled from Croatia and around 2,000 were killed in the operation Storm.
